Package: dhelp
Version: 0.6.0
Severity: important

Hi,

here is the problem:

irancy:~# /etc/cron.weekly/dhelp
/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/dhelp.rb:329:in `subdir?': nested *?+ in regexp: 
/^\/usr\/share\/doc\/doc++\/html\// (RegexpError)
        from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/dhelp.rb:339:in `<<'
        from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/set.rb:188:in `each'
        from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/set.rb:188:in `each_key'
        from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/set.rb:188:in `each'
        from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/dhelp.rb:334:in `<<'
        from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/dhelp.rb:324:in `initialize'
        from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/set.rb:188:in `each'
        from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/set.rb:188:in `each_key'
         ... 10 levels...
        from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/dhelp.rb:195:in `each'
        from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/dhelp.rb:194:in `each'
        from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/dhelp.rb:426:in `reindex_all'
        from -e:1

This bug is important because the /var/lib/dhelp/documents.index file
fails to be created and then every package that tries to register some
doc fails.  For instance:

Setting up libgcj-doc (4.2.2-3) ...
index++: error: could not read index from "/var/lib/dhelp/documents.index": No 
such file or directory
Dhelp::IndexerError: Couldn't index /usr/share/doc/gcj-4.2-base using 
/usr/bin/index++ --config-file /usr/share/dhelp/swish++.conf --index-file 
/var/lib/dhelp/documents.index --incremental - 
(/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/dhelp.rb:412:in `index'
/usr/sbin/dhelp_parse:104:in `main'
/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/commandline/application.rb:250:in `run'
/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/commandline/application.rb:269:in `__set_auto_run'
